Winter Car Mats

Since I will be driving my 2003 CL-S in the summer I was wondering if anyone has found some really good winter mats for them. I want something that will cover as much of the carpet as possible.

I know I can get front mats from Acura but don't know how well they cover all the carpet/

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

CLFAN2003

acura ones made for the CL will be cut exactly to the shape. but they cost about $100 from the dealer (at least for TSX's). dunno about the TL. but i bought black ones from wal-mart, long enough for a coupe, and 2 small ones for the back. fits perfectly (even on the dead pedal)

Werd... the acura oem ones kick ass... No need to spend 30-40 for walmart "one size fit's all" crap, when oem's cost a little bit more, and are perfect fit...

You can get 'em from acura carland for $39.20 (plus shipping)...

I got mine 6 years ago for $52 from acura carland and couldn't be happier...

I bought the Acura winter mats right away and its all I use. Look good and easy to clean sand out of. Figured I would throw them away when I moved to FL, but use them more now. I would say spend the $$ on the oem ones, they will look and fit better.

$42 for Acura OEM all weather front mats.

http://www.hondafloormats.com/cl/index.htm

They are the exact same size/shape as the carpet mats and you can even place them directly over the carpet mats. They are great for the money. There may be some aftermarket mats that are deeper or are bigger, but you usually have to trim them to fit.

I picked up a set of OEM mats for $45 shipped to Toronto, Canada; they are well worth it and look 100 times better than generic crap. Plus they are a lot easier to keep clean.

I have factory ones that came with my car. Nice to be able to hook them in place so they don't move around and they have nice high sides in addition to being extra heavy duty.

the Winter CL mats are about $100 cheaper in the US. I think the next time I go to buffalo I will pick them up. I also want to get a trunk liner and to ship it to Toronto is over $70.

Thanks for you help guys.
